CCH CompleteTax Makes Tax Prep and E-filing Even Easier and More Affordable for 2009
New Basic version offers comprehensive solution for less complex tax situations; both Basic and Premium versions are value priced and feature new interface to make it even easier to prepare, electronically file and get refunds fast
(RIVERWOODS, ILL., January 16, 2009) – Taxpayers now have two ideal choices for preparing and electronically filing their own tax returns with CCH CompleteTax® . Both CCH CompleteTax Basic and CCH CompleteTax Premium are available now at CompleteTax.com, and each offers taxpayers an easy and affordable way to complete their tax returns while ensuring they aren’t paying more than they should either on their taxes or for their tax prep solution.
“Over the past decade, CCH CompleteTax has become a clear choice for taxpayers who want a straightforward way to prepare and file their own tax returns. Built into this intuitive web-based software are years of CCH expertise in tax law and information. So, customers know they are getting their taxes done quickly and correctly and receiving the tax refund they deserve,” said Debra Gray, CCH CompleteTax product manager.
To help even more people reach this conclusion, taxpayers are encouraged to try CCH CompleteTax for free by simply logging onto the site and starting their tax return. Users need only pay when they are ready to print or file their tax return.
Two Value-priced, Easy-to-use Versions
Taxpayers will now be able to choose which CCH CompleteTax to use based upon their tax situations. CCH CompleteTax Basic is ideal for taxpayers with 1040EZ and simple tax returns, where itemizing is not needed and wages (W-2) and Form 1099 interest are the only sources of income. CCH CompleteTax Premium remains the choice for taxpayers with more complex tax returns, including entrepreneurs and investors.
Both versions are value priced with CCH CompleteTax Basic costing just $9.95 for a federal tax return. Federal tax return preparation costs for CCH CompleteTax Premium for 2009 remain the same as last year at just $29.95, making it among the most cost-effective solutions available for millions of taxpayers. With either version, taxpayers also can choose to prepare a state return for just $19.95. Free e-filing has always been included with CCH CompleteTax.
Both versions also feature CCH CompleteTax’s new interface, which makes it even easier for taxpayers to prepare and file their tax returns. And, because CCH CompleteTax is all online, there is no software that needs to be downloaded and consumers can easily move between computers while completing their returns.
